Hello BESTers,

I came across this intriguing article. In an effort to increase
awareness of food waste, an Austrian artist has taken a series of
still-life photographs of well-rotted food. I'm not sure if you would
want these pictures hanging on your wall, but they certainly are
interesting looking, if not somewhat beautiful. Warning: You may not
want to look at the photos if you are in the middle eating something.

Have a great weekend,
Ryan

P.S. I'm passing along another article that was sent to me about a dog
poo compost operation in Ithaca, NY
